Not yet--it's worse. It will take pictures and videos. Videos can't be made at HD and you can't select resolution, encoding for example. The camera seems to be fine except that widescreen formats (pictures) aren't available. I haven't checked the saved resolutions but it claims to support them all--it just won't auto crop to widescreen. The 50/60 Hz banding artifact settings in the camera do help in low light which is an improvement from Dexter's (at least if you live somewhere that has 60hz power). Anyway, camera is a mixed bag but the camcorder is definitely not up to par.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Zachary57:
Thank you, so I mean I will stay on dexter since final version come.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] molohov:
Here is a limited tested update.zip that I generated last night that includes CRT animations (and my Exchange support, but that can be safely disabled using the new entry in the CyanogenMod settings > Application settings page). Remember, this is built on CM 6.3 (none of Mioze's RC1-3 features included), since git.kernel.org is still down. You can try updating the three files I mentioned before on your CM 6.3 RC1-3 ROM, but I cannot guarantee it will work:

/system/framework/framework.jar
/system/framework/services.jar
/system/lib/libsurfaceflinger.so

Let me know if you do try to update those three files only.

http://www.multiupload.com/H97EMVMVKG

NOTES:

I reverted back to CM 6.3 with plain Exchange support for now because of a nuance I noticed with the new CRT animations. It was impossible to notice in daylight, but I noticed it as I went to bed.

The screen doesn't actually turn off completely, I think the backlight is still on, even though the screen is black. You'll see if you try it out. I'll review the code merge tonight, since I noticed one peculiar line removal when comparing diffs that could have removed this functionality.

For now, you can try this just to play around with the CRT animations (which DO work!). Please note that if you flash this, you cannot disable the CRT animations (would take some careful development to try and create an entry in CyanogenMod settings to enable/disable this feature, since this is a *.so file that was compiled, not an apk). Cheers!

Awesome! Is there any way to integrate the gb overscroll glow effect into CM6 as well? Really cannot wait for the final version:D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] molohov:
Depends on the framework. I'll paruse some CM7 source in my free time to see if I can cherry pick that feature.

On my quest to resolve the dim screen issue with the CRT animations, I found this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1125636&page=4

Which led me into reading source for the PowerManagerService. I believe the button backlights are controlled here too, so I will see if I can fix those too. More on this later.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] milaq:
actually, i integrated the gb overcroll effect some time ago but it wasn't playing nice with white background.

for details see here: https://github.com/milaq/android_pa...mmit/f84d50055a3cef93db2eb2411e3c178bd5537827

the actual framework commit should be still in the repo (HEAD has been moved so search for the commit in githistory) if anyone want to try and fix it.

maybe i'll revisit this and mioze can pull in the upstream change so you guys have some gingerbread awesomeness :)

of course if anyone had success porting it over w/o transparency issues, pls let me know ;)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] molohov:
Button backlights fixed

Hey CM6 users, and Mioze. I have discovered where the code that controls the button backlight is located, and I have restored normal backlight behavior. Everything is in PowerManagerService.java.

Essentially, whenever the service updates the mUserState (an integer that describes whether or not the screen, screen backlight, button backlight, and keyboard backlight are on), it never turns the button backlights on whenever the screen and the screen backlight are turned on.

A modified version of the PowerManagerService is attached for Mioze's review so he can integrate the changes I've made (once again, because git.kernel.org is down and this is an important feature!).

I've been using my own custom ROM with the backlights working for a day now, it's functioning like in 2.1 :) Though it's a little weird sometimes seeing the backlights again, I've gotten used to them being off.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] AllGamer:
is the zip file flash-able via Openrecovery ?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] molohov:
Sorry, I should have been more clear. There's a java file inside that needs to be integrated with the main source. The changes to the PowerManagerService seem to modify a slew of other .jar files, making a modular update.zip tricky.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I'm trying to migrate the build to use github mirrors for the kernel.org repositories, but it's not working yet. I had no idea it would take this long to get kernel.org back up...

Hi,

In 2.1, there is a feature that make keyboard led blinking when you receive a sms, is that in this ROM, I know it work with led me know but it is not always very good.

hi people, ive just flashed this and its so amazing lol. i love the crt animations! just cant wait to have the edge glow integrated in too.

ive tried silesh's coolblue theme with this rom but it gave me a bootloop. anyone's tried a theme that works?

edit: i used the old version (6.1.2). searched around and found the newer one that is for cm6.3.0. working very nicely now. thanks!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Shadowdancer123:
Is there any way battery percentage could be reported using the battery voltage instead of the built in percentage?

I've bought a replacement battery, and it always shows 5% but lasts much longer than the stock one did.

If % was based on volt, it would be a whole lot more accurate...

3,0 volt 0% and 4,2 volt 100%... Would allow 1% increments as well.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] milaq:
the reported battery percentage is internally calculated based on voltage.

the battery you bought is presumably of bad build quality and its voltage sensor reports inaccurate readings.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
This PowerManagerService.java seens to be identical to the one in the tree. Did you attach the wrong one?

Yes, yes I did...good catch. :P

This time, I diffed it twice just to be sure :D

how can i use V6 Supercharger on this rom? someone have a tutorial because i dont understand how to do it xD
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] eejin2:
Its very easy actually, just follow the steps on the supercharger thread at the themes and apps section. Sounds confusing but its probably just because you need to use the script manager and type stuff in. Just remember that the txt file has to be at the root of your SD card, and you need to use busybody 1.18.2 or older. Newer ones might give problems. Don't worry, in the process of using script manager, you only have to type in 2 numbers (both of which, there are options given and you just have to choose it type it in and press enter).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I used the V6_SuperCharger-AOR.zip version with OpenRecoveryXT720. It works well. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991276
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] DarkMD:
Like a update?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
No, if you open the zip you will find two files:

OpenRecovery/amenu/Menu -=V6 SuperCharger=-

OpenRecovery/scripts/V6_SuperCharger

Copy those files to the same directories on your sdcard. Then you access it by:

ORXT720 > Other Utilities > Menu -=V6 SuperCharger=-

I've been using "Balanced 3 Settings" and "OOM Grouping Fixes + BulletProof Launcher" as recommended here: http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/k9lbd/og_droid_owners_ive_dumped_dozens_hundreds_of/ although it looks like it's been updated in the interim.

I do occasionally get some weird FC's with those settings, though (mostly with XDA app, but the lastest XDA app has seemed somewhat buggy so it could be unrelated to V6). But overall I think it's an improvement.

My understanding of the V6 license is that I can't pre-bake it directly into OR-XT720.

Under Dexter's ROM, my camera doesn't work if I don't use khalpower's CamUpdate :

So, can this update fix camera problem in CM 6.3 ?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] eejin2:
i think its a problem with the rom, not the camera app. and the camera app in cm6 isnt even the same as our stock camera, so i dont think its going to work.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] raidontaro:
Hi all,

I'm having a problem with this CM6 RC-3

I've flashed to stock 2.1 CBW then update it to CM6 RC3.

It went well, the phone is very smooth.

But then, I want to customized it to play games, in this example is "Colloseum" and "Muffin Knight", it was very laggy and I can't play it very well.

So, I installed MilestoneOverclock and OC it to 1Ghz, 58 Vsel (at 56 it goes crazy).

Colloseum and Muffin Knight still has lag, but not like before.

I installed AutoKiller Memory Optimizer (AKMO) and played with the preset, it helps a little, I can play a lot easier.

And then to improve it better again, I uninstalled the AKMO and used the Supercharger V6 via androidiani using Aggresive 2 and gaming.

Colloseum is fine, not very smooth, but no lag that disrupt the game.

Muffin Knight runs well, but sometimes it halts a little and then I can continue to play.

The problem is...

I played for half an hour and feel that the XT is very hot, and then it hangs...I have to do a battery pull... Everytime I play it's always very hot and make it hangs...

Any solution?

- 1 Ghz, 58vsel

- Supercharger v6, aggresive 2
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] molohov:
This isn't a problem with the ROM, more of a limitation of the hardware of the phone. Playing any game over 30 minutes will definitely heat up this phone. (Not that I have the most experience, the only games I've played on this phone are HexDefense and Angry Birds). A lot of these newer games are designed for the new 'superphones', although they can definitely run on our 'older' models.

How to disable Market Alarm Service?

Hey guys, I'm trying to optimize my RAM availability as much as possible.

I'm currently using Superchanger v6, Balanced 2 settings and bulletproof launcher...the result is outstanding, no FCs at all, RAM always more than 70 MB (without swap, of course), phone snappier than ever.

At first I used the Balanced 3 settings as suggested by Mioze7ae but I had some FC and the basic services I'm using (whatsapp, juice defender and led me know) restarted themselves automatically every 5 minutes (the consequence is a lower battery life), so I changed to Balanced 2 settings (that are a bit less aggressive, despite the RAM availability is always more than 70 MB, as I already said) and no service has restarted yet.

Having said this, while monitoring the services' status, I noticed that the Market Alarm Service starts everytime the phone is booted up, and uses 8-10 MB basically for nothing. In fact, I disabled automatic notifications in the Market settings (I don't care much about keeping all my apps perfectly up-to-date).

Anyone knows a way to prevent this service from starting by itself?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] raidontaro:
I got some problem here please help,

Sometimes, the data connection (the icon near the signal) is lost, and I can't connect to the net. It happens very often.

When I check with *#*#4636#*#* it says that "DcActivatingState is connecting bla bla bla" sometimes it read "fail because protocol errors"

To reconnect, I have tried many ways, and I don't know which one is valid.

Sometimes I can connect when I'm in the phone information

Sometimes it connects when I turned 2G only

Sometimes it can connects when I go to Edit Acces Point

Sometimes it can connect again when I tap and hold the apn name all the time

The odd thing is, when I'm in Edit Acces Point and it connects, it always gone when I press back/home button

Any ideas?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] S7icky:
Try apn manager
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] banshee56:
With the changes that V6 Supercharger makes, is it beneficial (or necessary) to remove Autokiller Memory Optimizer before applying the V6 settings?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I think V6 makes AKMO somewhat redundant (unless you want to manually enter custom minfree values that are not provided by V6). I assume that AKMO will override V6 minfree values when used. So either remove or disable the "apply on boot" setting. I opted to just remove it to save space.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] AA1973:
Or just remove (Revoke?) the granted root access in the Superuser app.

I did so to see what happens and afterwards deleted it like Mioze.

For monitoring the running services you could try out Gemini App Manager where you see which app has which rights.

There's an expert mode where you can filter the apps to be run automatically on boot or such-a-like.

Edit: try it on your own risk. I just had a wonderful battery pull after trying out to prevent an app from "auto-run at boot"... maybe I shouldn't recommend an app before having tested intensely ... in other words I am not made for the expert mode :)

I searched many forums, many threads have been opened about this service, but what I just found out is the following: it seems that Market Alarm Service is part of the android system that initiates when apps are scheduled to perform a task such as checking email, alarm clocks and so fourth. Here is a brief quote from a developers post ...

* This demonstrates how you can schedule an alarm that causes a service to

* be started. This is useful when you want to schedule alarms that initiate

* long-running operations, such as retrieving recent e-mails.

The battery icon should animate even when storage mode is not enabling.

You might have a broken cable or a problem with the computer.

Or at the very worst, a bust usb port on the phone. :(

MB consumption

Guys, ever since I flashed Mioze's CM6 RC3 I noticed that every morning my total available internet megabytes decrease by 10 MB (more or less) when I boot up the phone, even though I'm not starting any application.

Does anybody have an idea about the source of this MB consumption? Maybe it can be due to the activated background data (but auto-sync is off...)?

However, is there a way (an app) to monitor the flux of data and the applications that generate it?

IDEA:

Maybe it could be related to the Market Alarm Service which always starts by itself when booting up the phone and which I'm trying to stop.

So, here's one last question, what if I uninstall Market Updater? What could the consequences be? Might it be the source of this unwanted service?

Thanks to everyone that will try to help me :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody:
For the Alarm thing, whenever I boot up, I always go to setting>running services and stop that first thing. I wouldn't mess with the updater. If you manage your tasks well like you said, you can use TB to unlink any apps from the market (or even freeze the market if you want).

For the other thing, maybe try *#*#4636#*#* and see what has been running for the past few hours. Maybe that will give some clues.

I use Juice Defender Plus (paid) but there is a custom setting that you can set that will kill data from x time to x time unless you are actively using it. I have mine set from 12a to 6a. So my data is completely shut off while I am asleep (not phone, just data) until I unlock my phone and revive the connection.

After a few weeks i have too weird things... One good and one bad to change

-for the good one I repair my led sensitive button (on the bottom) now it work like on stock and the only things i did is playing with the preinstalled app call torchlight (or something like that i m translating from "lampe de poche" in french...) I play a little with the 2 options (i don t know which one make it work) but after that my led worked!!!!! :confused::D:confused:

I think it s a cyanogen app i can t see it on the market

If someone with the 6.3 RC3 (like me) can test...

-And now the bad it s a memory problem

I use from the begining (and before with other rom) an ext4 part with an app folder. i never had a memory problem with that (i have 1Go of ext...) so i never really take care of my free memory but yesterday it notice me a lack of space in the hard drive i look in the setting (sd card and memory) and it show that i only have 4Mo left!!!!!

I try to move app to sd with the stock app manager but they don t seems to move. It tell me that it has move them but the memory don t change even after a reboot.....

How can i see where which app is installed???

i hope i will not loose apps if i test a new rom...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody:
Couple of questions. Are you doing battery pulls here and there and do you have a cache cleaner app?

If you have a fair amount of battery pulls, go into /data/tombstones and delete those.

Everytime I browse XDA on my phone or link up to facebook/G+ it saves massive cache (I have gotten it up to around 115mb before. If your partition is set up correctly like it had been all along, I am thinking that your cache is taking up a bunch of space.

Try this to see how much memory is in each partition. Go to terminal and type

su

Busybox df -h

and that will show your partitions free and used.

Edit::MZ we must have been typing at the same time. haha
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Well, there's no point moving apps between /sd-ext partition and /sdcard partition... that won't affect internal memory at all. One thing is that dalvik-cache is stored on /data for non-system apps. Maybe there's some stale cache sitting around. So you might try to wipe dalvik-cache.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
That what i think it doesn t make sense but it ask me too... so i try

I try to delete all the tombstone but it don t work. I come back after a wipe....

... it doesn t work too... i wipe cache and dalvik but only 33mo left after booting but 5min after it drop down to 16mo...

Do you know an app to see which app is installed on the ext ? I m too lazy ( and it s too late ) to test your busybox command now woodrube...

Its sounds bad for my apps...

Someone try the led trick ?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] newbkilla:
My phone everytime I restart says I have low internal. I use Link2SD, and all I have to do is either: relink all of my 58 apps, or clean up dalvik cache, both take about 2 minutes, but it cleans out 60+ mb. Hope this helps.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
I test it

It free 10 more Mo i have 26Mo now...

But i think it miss up the sd ext i see it copy all mly apps from the app folder to the root of sdext...

I think i m gonna try bravo...

So, I'm currently stuck on the video encoder/camcorder thing not working and I feel like maybe it's time to try a different approach. How does everyone feel about trying to adopt Motorola's camera/camcorder at least as a stop-gap/temporary fix (no guarantees it's even possible)? Or do people hate that camera even more than what we've got in CM6? Any opinions about whether to prefer the camera/camcorder from 2.1 or the Korean 2.2.1?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I don't know what Khalpowers did to his camcorder but I was just backing up my sisters pics and videos from her XT and she has been on Khal's v4 all this time and wow dude, her videos were freaking as perfect as it's supposed to be. So much better than i have seen in a while.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Ah, actually maybe the camcorder has been working all along! Jeesh could that app be more confusing? So here's what I see in the camcorder:

There are five icons top to bottom:

Settings

Brightness

White balance

Flash mode

Video quality

I had been looking in the Settings menu at the Video Quality/Video Encoder/Audio Encoder settings and wondering why I can't change them (NOTE: those stupid bubble menus SCROLL). It turns out that you select Video Quality from the bottom of the five icons. This has these options:

High

Wide

Normal

Low

MMS

YouTube

Custom

All of those except the last have preselected values for the Video Quality/Video Encoder/Audio Encoder settings in the Settings menu. If you select "Custom" in the bottom icon menu, then you can choose the others in the settings icon menu. CONFUSING, but seems to be working already :D DOH

There doesn't seem to be a setting for toggling wide-screen format manually in either the camera or camcorder so that probably needs to be fixed. But I'm feeling more sane now. Nothing like beating your head trying to fix something that isn't broken. Yeesh.

Edit: also "D1" seems to be code for HD/720p
